Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Probably should have given all of the evidence to the police instead of deleting some of it.
In most western jurisdictions platform operators are not liable for user content, (as long as they cooperate with the authorities) so nothing for you to worry about.
Next time, don't do anything, no deleting, no blocking, contact the police and ask them what they would like you to do. Maybe they'd even would want to letting them keep posting for a while to gather more data on the offenders, but idk how they deal with selfhosted stuff tbh..
(this is not legal advice)
(Also I totally understand that you don't want your other users seing that kind of stuff. I know nothing about the matrix moderation tools, so maybe the media is on the server db somewhere ... might be relevant to figure that out)
Edit: this does not apply if you live in an authoritarian police state or third world country, like OP apparently does.
If you have a problem and call the police, now you have two problems. That's not just cliche, it's true.
Don't call the cops, call a lawyer.
